android - Get the filename that your ImageView loaded it's image from -

i looking built in method of imageview object tell me file retrieved image from.

for example earlier in code called...

imageview iv = new imageview(mainactivity.this);                 iv.setimagebitmap(bitmapfactory.decodefile(f.getabsolutepath())); 

assume no longer have reference 'f' , need find out f was. there way that? work around creating class extends imageview , has string pared it. (or create map between imageview , string)

recommendations?

the easiest workaround using tag imageview:

imageview iv = new imageview(mainactivity.this); string path = f.getabsolutepath();                  iv.setimagebitmap(bitmapfactory.decodefile(path)); iv.settag(path); 

retrieving path:

string path = (string) iv.gettag();
